I saw an Elvis Presley movie Jailhouse Rock, where he gets out of jail and makes his own records and takes them to the radio stations himself. And then, he puts records in the store. After seeing that, I made records an put them in stores.
Bobby Vinton

I organized Sweet Honey In The Rock in 1973. The music was sanity and balance.
Bernice Johnson Reagon

I like Jailhouse Rock and Love Me Tender. The black-and-white films. With music, I tend more toward the '70s stuff because I was at the shows for those, so they bring back memories.
Lisa Marie Presley

On that show, I did country and some rock, too, whatever record I had out at the time, I'd sing that.
Wanda Jackson

I really don't have a theme when I start a sculpture. The rock guides me to the final sculpture. I think that is true for many creative sculpture artists.
Jimmy Carl Black

If you play jazz, then you play with your fingers. If you're playing rock, you use a pick. There's really no rhyme or reason to that other than that's just the way it has been.
Kevin Eubanks

Yeah, I don't like, um, I'm not interested in rock 'n' roll piano. I find it a little grating.
Warren Zevon

I am very friendly with lots of people in rock'n'roll, because I spent so much time with them over the years through Mick's work.
Jerry Hall

Obviously I got known for some other songs early on, and some of those were rock'n'roll songs. Some of them were melodic pop songs. And I've done lots of different things, as you know, but every so often I get drawn back.
Elvis Costello

For a while we were chasing a book by Graham Greene to do Brighton Rock as a musical. We didn't get the rights, so we decided to create something from scratch, with Jonathan. By that time we were big fans of his work.
Neil Tennant

Rock'n'roll saved my soul.
Thurston Moore

I wish the rock 'n' roll scene to be back in.
Brendan Fraser

The biggest hurdle to writing Fargo Rock City was that I couldn't afford a home computer - I had to get a new job so I could buy a computer. It could all change though. In five years, I could be back at some daily newspaper, which wouldn't be so bad.
Chuck Klosterman

And that's the mistake that was made with Steel Pier. Roger was caught between a rock and hard place. It would have cost a couple of million dollars more to take it to Boston or someplace first. So we opened about a month too early.
Gregory Harrison

There was this whole middle time that only Chris Rock came out of, you know, 10 years ago it was Chris and a few other people, but that's about it. Chris is in a class of his own; I don't see another comedian who I put in high regard as him.
Bob Saget

The record companies are interested in the kind of sales they can get from the rock groups.
Norman Granz

When we did concerts, we wanted them to be theatrical events - collaborations with designers, choreographers, and directors - because we thought traditional rock concerts were boring.
Neil Tennant

Kill Rock Stars allowed me to put out a real genuine rock 'n' roll record.
Ronnie Spector

We've pumped waste into cavities in solid rock and found that it spread through the rock.
David R. Brower

Punk rock really came out of N.Y. as a philosophy before the groups were ever recorded. I had a kind-of intellectual interest in the idea of creating a new scene that could be a grassroots thing.
Greg Ginn
